Magnetic Conveyor Pulley Separators — Fast Retrofit, Continuous Protection

Magnetic head pulley separators replace existing conveyor head pulleys to continuously remove ferrous contaminants from material streams. Magnetic particles are carried around the pulley and discharged separately, while clean material follows its normal trajectory. Ideal for mining, recycling, quarrying and ferrochrome recovery applications, these systems are custom-built for fast retrofit with minimal downtime.

Key Benefits

Continuous Separation

Automatic ferrous discharge without stopping production.

Fast Retrofit

Direct replacement for existing head pulleys with custom shaft machining.

Low Maintenance

Durable construction with optional lagging for improved belt grip.

Applications

Mining & Quarrying

Protect crushers and recover valuable ferrous material.

Recycling

Separate steel from non-ferrous streams on conveyor systems.

Metal Recovery

Recover ferrochrome and iron from slag and beneficiation processes.
